I especially love roasted nuts. And one benefit of roasting them is clear — if you think roasted nuts taste better — then roasting will encourage you to include them in your diet.<\/p>\n

My kitchen is always stocked with some kind of nuts. With so much variety they literally work with anything and add a dose of crunch and goodness to whatever it is you\u2019re eating. All nuts have different nutrition benefits and offer valuable vitamins and minerals that are vital to a healthy diet. Plus, not only do they taste great, they also make great snacks.<\/p>\n

So if you aren\u2019t familiar with roasting, let\u2019s take a look at how easy it is:<\/p>\n

S<\/span>TOVETOP METHOD:<\/strong>
\nIn a heavy bottomed saucepan or skillet spread the nuts out in a single layer.<\/p>\n

\"Toasted<\/a>
Toasted mixed nuts – cashews, pumpkin seeds, pine nuts, soya beans & sunflower seeds<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Heat on medium-high. Do not add any oil or cooking spray. Stir or shake frequently for 5-10 minutes or until nuts are fragrant and turn golden brown.<\/p>\n

Remove from heat, and transfer to a plate, otherwise they will continue to cook after being removed from the heat.<\/p>\n

O<\/span>VEN METHOD:<\/strong>
\nPreheat oven to 350\u00b0 F \/ 180\u00b0C. Spread nuts evenly in a single layer in a shallow pan.<\/p>\n

Bake in middle of oven for about 10-15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes or so until nuts become fragrant (in the case of hazelnuts, the skins begin to crack). See below table for guide to roasting times.<\/p>\n

Be sure to keep an eye on your nuts and check them every few minutes to avoid overcooking them, otherwise they will taste bitter and burnt.<\/p>\n

Remove immediately from the pan, otherwise the nuts will continue browning after you\u2019ve removed them from the oven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

NOTE<\/strong>: Ovens heat differently, so your timing may vary slightly.<\/p>\n

S<\/span>KINNING NUTS<\/strong>
\nIf you have toasted nuts that have skins on them (e.g. peanuts or hazelnuts), simply allow them to cool for a few minutes and once cool enough to handle, place the nuts in a clean, dry kitchen towel and rub them vigorously.<\/p>\n

You can also use your bare fingers since the skins will slip right off.<\/p>\n

Don’t worry if there are any remaining skins. A small amount of skin remaining on the nuts is completely normal and safe to eat.<\/p>\n

So how about health benefits of including nuts in your diet?<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a VERY brief overview:<\/p>\n

Almonds<\/a><\/strong>* \u2013 calcium-rich, high in vitamin E — good for your bones and your skin. Aside from chestnuts, the only nut that is alkaline forming \u2013 important to maintaining your health and preventing cancer.<\/p>\n

Brazil Nuts<\/a><\/strong>*** – good source of the mineral selenium — ideal for those with a low thyroid function.<\/p>\n

Cashews<\/strong>*** – rich in magnesium, with notable levels of protein and minerals like iron and zinc — excellent choice if you’re following a vegetarian diet — you only need 3 or 4 of them for the full benefit.<\/p>\n

Chestnuts<\/a><\/strong>* – rich in starchy carbs and fibre, B vitamins including B6 — by far the nut with the lowest fat and calories.<\/p>\n

Hazelnuts<\/a><\/strong>* – good source of folate which regulates an amino acid called homocysteine \u2013 in turn effectively reduces the risk of heart problems.<\/p>\n

Pecans<\/a><\/strong>** – packed with plant sterols, rich in oleic acid (that\u2019s the healthy fat found in avocado), and loaded with antioxidants — heart-friendly and effective at lowering cholesterol levels.<\/p>\n

Pine Nuts<\/a><\/strong>*** \u2013 good source of heart-healthy monounsaturated fat, vitamin E and zinc, nutrients — great for improving cardiovascular health and maintaining healthy eyes, skin, and hair.<\/p>\n

Pistachios<\/a><\/strong>** – rich in vitamin B6 which keeps hormones balanced and healthy. Plus it\u2019s the only nut that contains a reasonable levels of lutein and zeaxanthin — two antioxidants that play an important role in protecting the eyes.<\/p>\n

Walnuts<\/a><\/strong>** – superior antioxidant content \u2013 important for fighting against cancer good, plus it\u2019s a good source of mono-unsaturated, heart-friendly fats, which help to lower the bad form of cholesterol. Don\u2019t forget rich in omega-3, so a great alternative if you don’t eat oily fish.<\/p>\n
